Philippe V le Long vient de mourir avant d'avoir atteint trente ans et, comme son frère Louis X le Hutin, sans descendance mâle. Le troisième fils du Roi de fer, le faible Charles IV le Bel, succède à Philippe V. Une évasion de la tour de Londres; la chevauchée cruelle conduite par une reine française d'Angleterre pour chasser du trône son époux; un atroce assassinat perpétré sur un souverain... La relance de l'Histoire vient d'Angleterre. La ' Louve de France ', c'est le tragique surnom que les chroniqueurs donnèrent à la reine Isabelle, fille de Philippe le Bel, qui semblait avoir transporté outre-Manche la malédiction des templiers.
